Story Ideas I Would Like to Tackle in the Future
Duncan Thompson
If you have read my debut book, Within the Dark Places, you will know this is set in the town of Raven's Peak. However, we only see a glimpse of this setting, as the story mainly takes place in Druid Wood.
My forthcoming book, Where the Darkness Hides (due for release June 2017) moves from Druid Wood to Raven's Peak police station and we are introduced to some of the officers who are on the force. But what about the other residents of Raven's Peak? Or the history of this small, yet strange, town?
Well, I want to explore this in future books...
I am currently working on the first volume of shorter stories which take place in and around Raven's Peak. While each story will stand alone, there will be an underlying story running throughout which will reach a conclusion in the final part. In many ways, I hope to replicate the same feel and story arch as a T.V show.
I have ideas for at least five volumes, which will feature Raven's Peak in the title. The first currently entitled Welcome to Raven's Peak, which follows young police officer Rachel Cooper as she investigates the death of her father. The clues of her investigation have led her to Raven's Peak.
My goal is to then tie the Raven's Peak volumes to Within the Dark Places and Where the Darkness Hides, setting up their next installment, where we might just get to see characters from both series interact.
